First Day

My first day at my internship was literally a dream come true. I enjoyed every moment of it...to the point that I competely forgot to eat until I got home around 5:30. The drive to Atlanta was a disaster due to the snow and ice...but the ride home took 40 minutes...Perfect! If you are thinking this is horrible.....believe me....it could be much worse! My internship is with To The Trade Only. TO is a service for designers to find exactly what they are looking for quickly...time is money. TO has a huge database full of every resource within 100 miles of Atlanta for their designer members to use. Also TO puts on events for their clients to network. Today, I was helping Barbara, the CEO, go to upscale showrooms to get them on board for their event in May....so fun! And I learned a ton. One reason why I was so interested in this internship is because everyday is different and I would get to meet a ton of designers, as well as sales representatives in large showrooms and store owners of design items. Let's hope that the days to come are as great.

But please keep Zach and his job search in your prayers. Also keep us in your prayers as we are separated. Although we both know that the separation will be beneficial to our future and is short term, it doesn't make it any easier.

It sounds like you have found your niche....I hope things continue to go well and that Zach can be relocated to you ASAP! That's a tough spot to be in, for any couple, but you do have the Lord on your side....things always work for the good, for those who love the Lord.
